Synopsis
A chilling, horribly plausible international thriller where secrets of the past rock the security of the future.
When Leon Garrick is despatched to negotiate a ransom in Spain, he does not know his client is harboring a deadly a program to develop racially targeted viruses. Then things go hideously wrong and the secret takes them from a village in the North of Spain to the heart of Washington. Driven by different needs but united by a common goal, they all want justice, but face an enemy who cannot allow the secret to be revealed.
This is a multi-layered thriller with hugely topical and controversial themes, including the recently revealed relationship between virus and racial genetic make-up which will enable chemical virus weapons to be targeted at specific weapons could theoretically be developed to affect particular versions of genes clustered in specific ethnic or family groups. Simultaneously, and while sustaining a thrilling pace, as always Roderick Kalberer portrays brilliantly his characters and their motivations.
